    I have been given the opportunity to run in London Marathon 2013. I am running for a mental health charity as my son became mentally unwell in the summer which was traumatic.. Running the marathon has always been one of my goals and I feel so grateful to have won a place. I just need to get more motivated and get back out there running and step up my training.. The most I can do at present, is 2 days a week for 50 min. (Have no ideas about miles) Suppose I best invest in a good
    pedometer.. Any suggestions in regards to training, would be much appreciated..

    • Rob_Barber 'That's a great place to be starting from - 50 minutes is a decent amount of running however far you travel in that time. Best thing you can do for now is step it up to 3 days a week - it doesn't have to be 3 x 50 minutes - slip a 10 or 15 minute run in there to start off with, and build that up over the next 3 or 4 weeks. As you do that physically, find a training plan you like the look of to carry you forward to the marathon. Good luck :-)' 7 months ago

    New dream, first and formost: To have a training run in the future, those uncontrolable life thoughts that run through your brain, mine will one day be - i love my career, i love where i live, etc etc... i'll get there eventually. To be busy but content, and injury free!

    Everyone notice how many people are signing up to realbuzz today? Realised its becuase they have the option on the ballot page. We're being swamped lol. Anyway, more people are joining my group, yay! I also have entered the ballot. I'm glad to see they are offering a rain jacket this time which looks nice, the fleece last year, i gotta say wasnt so nice. Fabric was funny. I have a new running dream! Fellow VLM 2012 finishers have remarked in their blogs about seeing there families on the course supporting them, and i saw mine too, and its the best feeling in the world after seeing so many strangers. But my dream is to be running around the course one year, and not only see my mum and sister, but see my babies too, and well hopefully a bloke, would be helpfull. I'm not normally broody but you guys talking about your kids throughout your journeys, i want that journey too. Now all i need is a career, and enevitably a guy who wants my babies lol. Narrows it down.... not. Ok i'm done now, its not THAT kind of website lol. But thats my new dream!
